Vanilla Rooibos
7.5Ravenscourt Apothecary
Floral · Sweet · Gourmand
Ravenscourt Apothecary Vanilla Rooibos pairs vanilla, rooibos tea and caramel with cinnamon and cardamom, making a sweet, spiced gourmand scent aimed at women.
The notes come as one flat list with no top, heart and base split, so the scent reads as a single whole. Vanilla, caramel and rooibos tea build the sweet gourmand core, while benzoin adds a soft resinous layer. Cinnamon, cardamom and black pepper cut the sweetness with spice, and immortelle brings a floral, slightly smoky shade over a woody backdrop.
Voters rate both longevity and sillage as moderate, though the number of votes is small, so these ratings are tentative. It is classed as a women's fragrance, and its sweet, spicy build suits cooler days. Perfumes with a close profile include Penhaligon's The Bewitching Yasmine and Eau d'Italie Baume du Doge.
